[Xen-users] Centos 5.5 DomO and FreeBSD/Ubuntu Support?
Hi people. This is my first questions to the list, I''m running my first Xen server and 4 guest, but they are all Centos 5.5 and the host is Centos to, is very easy to create Centops Guest machines. Now, what I want to know is, do u have on production server with Centos 5.x as host Freebsd 7/8 or Ubuntu 9/10 as guest? I have been googling but the instructions are not to clear, I still reading a lot about but just would like to know this. Appreciated your time!!! _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Yes they do cost a few dollars but IMHO it is well worth it. I personally spent over two weeks trying to get ubuntu 10.04 to run as a paravirt domu on my centos 5.5 xen 4.0 dom0 to no avail. The stacklet.com images "just plain work". Donny B. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

So they should have just about anything you need. I use the Centos images even though I can install via virt-install simply because it is instant gratification rather than a few hours to download all the packages and such. And I am by no means saying this is the only way. Others have gotten ubuntu 10.04 to work with some tinkering as a paravirt domu. However the vast majority of what I read has had issues. So I chose the easy way out since I needed a working ubuntu 10.04 domu asap. Your mileage may vary. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
